William Gallas (Arsenal), £6 million - France defender is about to start his eighth season in English football which means that his bank balance is looking very healthy. Earns £70,000 a week at the Emirates Stadium after controversial departure from Chelsea two years ago. </p> <p>= 21. Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal), £6 million - Dynamic midfield player who is set to add to his fortune after impressive performances for Spain at Euro 2008. Earns about £50,000 a week at the Emirates Stadium and has multi-million pound deal with Nike. </p> <p>= 21. Shaun Wright-Phillips (Chelsea), £6 million - Jose Mourinho really did think that Wright-Phillips was worth £21 million and the peripheral pint-sized winger really has been earning £65,000 a week for the past three years. </p> <p>= 21. Jamie Carragher (Liverpool), £6 million - Anfield legend who earns £80,000 a week and owns an award-winning restaurant in Merseyside. </p> <p>= 21. Fernando Torres (Liverpool), £6 million - Spain hotshot who has confirmed his status as one of the best strikers in the world since £26.5 million transfer from Atletico Madrid to Liverpool last summer. Earns £90,000 a week at Anfield and another £1.5 million a year from commercial deals in the UK and Spain. </p> <p>20. Louis Saha (Manchester United), £7 million - He shoots, he falls over, he leaves the pitch on a stretcher. Nothing has gone right for the injury-prone France forward since he arrived at Old Trafford in 2004 but he has been banking £45,000 a week. </p> <p>19. Jonathan Woodgate (Tottenham Hotspur), £8 million - Another player who seems to have spent most of his career counting his cash in the treatment room. Earns about £60,000 a week at White Hart Lane and yes, he did play for Real Madrid – very occasionally. </p> <p>= 16. Robbie Keane (Liverpool), £9 million - Has a Carling Cup winners’ medal at home and has enjoyed the financial benefits from five moves, including recent £19 million transfer from White Hart Lane to Anfield (depending on the signing-on fee, Keane will have moved up the list). </p> <p>= 16. Craig Bellamy (West Ham United), £9 million - Wales forward who missed most of last season with injuries but still managed to pick up £75,000 a week. That’s almost £4 million before tax. </p> <p>= 16. Michael Essien (Chelsea), £10 million - Ghana midfield player who has just signed a new five-year Stamford Bridge contract worth about £100,000 a week. Hit the jackpot when he joined Chelsea from Lyon for £24 million three years ago. </p> <p>= 13. Nicolas Anelka (Chelsea), £11 million - Cheer up, Nic. You’re pocketing £75,000-a-week and playing for one of the best teams in the world while the rest of us are worrying about our gas bills. </p> <p>= 13. Joe Cole (Chelsea), £11 million - Chelsea’s Mr Nice Guy has a lucrative boot deal with adidas which supplements a Stamford Bridge salary that is expected to rise to £80,000 a week this season. </p> <p>= 13. Ashley Cole (Chelsea), £11 million - England left back who earns £80,000-a-week at Stamford Bridge after acrimonious move from Arsenal two years ago. Emerged financially unscathed after disastrous foray into the world of publishing with 'My Story'. </p> <p>= 11. Kieron Dyer (West Ham United), £12 million - Broke a leg soon after moving to Upton Park last summer but that has not stopped £80,000 rolling into his bank account every week. </p> <p>= 11. Emile Heskey (Wigan Athletic), £12 million - Another player who was born at the right time to take advantage of rocketing wages in English football. Has earned excellent wages at Leicester City, Liverpool, Birmingham City and Wigan Athletic. </p> <p>= 9. Harry Kewell (Galatasaray), £13 million - Public Enemy No 1 in Leeds but who cares when you were picking up £60,000 a week in Liverpool for doing virtually nothing (list compiled before Kewell's move to Turkey). </p> <p>= 9. Didier Drogba (Chelsea), £13 million - Ivory Coast forward who is convinced that he deserves more than £90,000-a-week at Stamford Bridge. Earns another £20,000-a-week from endorsements and commercial deals. </p> <p>8. Damien Duff (Newcastle United), £14 million - Ireland winger who made a small fortune from his £17 million transfer from Blackburn Rovers to Chelsea but now has to get by on £70,000-a-week at St James' Park and Lucozade endorsement. </p> <p>7. Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United), £15 million - The Portuguese winker has been in Los Angeles trying to find new ways of cashing in on his name and fame. Must be diffuclt having to survive on wages of £120,000 a week. </p> <p>6. John Terry (Chelsea), £16 million - JT never sheds a tear when his bank statement drops through the letterbox of his Surrey mansion every month. Mr Chelsea takes home about £140,000 a week and has a boot deal with Umbro worth £4 million. </p> <p>= 4. Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), £19 million - The G-Unit is still sitting pretty despite turning down Roman Abramovich’s millions three years ago. Earns about £120,000-a-week at Anfield and supplemented his income last year with a best-selling autobiography and £1 million-a-year adidas deal. </p> <p>= 4. Frank Lampard (Chelsea), £19 million - Having to make do on £115,000 a week a Stamford Bridge while negotiations have stalled on a new £150,000-a-week 5-year deal. Also has a £1 million-a-year boot deal with adidas. </p> <p>3. Rio Ferdinand (Manchester United), £28 million - Blockbusting moves to Leeds United and Manchester United, the advice of superagent Pini Zahavi, shrewd investments and Nike and Ben Sherman deals mean that the England defender will always be able to get his round in. </p> <p>2. Wayne Rooney (Manchester United), £35 million - Can look forward to a life of luxury when he retires thanks to £115,000-a-week wages, deals with Nike and Coca-Cola and the earning power of his other half, Coleen. </p> <p>1. Michael Owen (Newcastle United), £41 million - The England forward has been investing his money wisely since he made his name at Liverpool and is on the verge of signing a new lucrative contract at Newcastle United. Also has a £2 million-a-year Umbro boot deal. </p> http://soccerlens.com/forum/topic/lampard-and-ronaldinho#post-6828 Sat, 28 Jun 2008 12:33:37 +0000 Liversea 6828@http://soccerlens.com/forum/ <p>I never said it did.</p> <p>Oh, BTW, last time I checked, the wiki page for Lamps even said that he moved to Milan.

It's as simple as that. Think of Michaelangelo Buonorotti's relationship to Lorenzo di Medici. I wouldn't worry about Scolari's English. He'll pick it up quick enough and Abramowicz already has a stable of multilingual translator/spy/grasses working for him. Scolari simply isn't going to empathize with Terry and Lamps' cockney spiv hardboy wannabe rubbish, anyway. A bit of travel d and Italian tactical systems will broaden his mind. John Charles and Denis Law did all right in Italy, although most Brit players don't. Milan is a very cool city if you like food and culture. This isn't like thirty years ago with Jimmy Greaves mourning over there being no eel pie and chips and the mediocrity of Italian beer. </p> http://soccerlens.com/forum/topic/lampard-and-ronaldinho#post-6800 Fri, 27 Jun 2008 20:09:57 +0000 bobotonto 6800@http://soccerlens.com/forum/ <p>Lamps loves Mourinho.

He's after all a former World Player of the Year, World Cup and Champions League winner...so it means he's a high profile club kind of player and though it would be nice for Man City to get his services and make the prem even more competitive next season I just feel they don't have the profile he wants to be associated with. He's still 28 so he has about 3 seasons left. So playing in the Champions league is his utmost priority - the most grand stage of club football. So I know he's really waiting for an offer from a high-profile club. And now that Chelsea has hired Scolari and can pay his ridiculous wages i'd say he quietly has his heart set on going to the Bridge. </p> http://soccerlens.com/forum/topic/lampard-and-ronaldinho#post-6275 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 18:17:51 +0000 SMin 6275@http://soccerlens.com/forum/ <p>Lampard at Inter would give me a lot of satisfaction. I don't hate him or anything, I just think theres an outside chance that a move abroad might mean he plays better in internationals.</p> <p>As for Ronaldinho, its unlikely but I have a sneaky suspicion that by the end of the transfer window he may have gone back to a Brazilian club, Adriano style. </p> http://soccerlens.com/forum/topic/lampard-and-ronaldinho#post-6268 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 15:55:00 +0000 CGlend6 6268@http://soccerlens.com/forum/ <p>I don't think its Lampard to Italy so much as its Lampard to go to Mourinho.

The league could have gone either way. In short it's hard to separate the 2 teams and we could have easily been looking at a Chelsea double. But standing back and looking at the season as a whole it would take the most short sighted fan to begrudge Man Utd this success. In the league Man Utd scored the most and conceded the fewest and played some great football at times. In the Champions League we had the top scorer and won the group stage with a game to spare. I'm sure everyone would agree that Lyon, Roma and Barca were harder opposition than Olympiacos, Fenerbahce and Liverpool for the knockout stage. So even though the final was that close the right team won, even though I am biased. And if Man Utd had lost Alex Ferguson would have won as many Champions League titles as Avram Grant. Now that really wouldn't be fair, would it! </p> <p>It took Ferguson 13 years to build up to a CL victory and since then has been gradually removing the old guard (Beckham, Butt, Neville, RVN) and bringing in new young players (Rooney, Ronaldo) to build up to this win. By contrast, Chelsea have bought ready made players at the top of their game including several CL winners and financed their way to the final after just 5 Abramovich years. For the good of the game it's only right that Chelsea should come second. </p> http://soccerlens.com/forum/topic/why-chelsea-deserved-to-lose/page/2#post-5382 Tue, 27 May 2008 00:01:38 +0000 manutdfan 5382@http://soccerlens.com/forum/ <p>I hope that next season's UEFA Champions League Final or FA Cup final...Man United will meet Chelsea again... </p> http://soccerlens.com/forum/topic/why-chelsea-deserved-to-lose/page/2#post-5380 Mon, 26 May 2008 23:23:07 +0000 XerxesK 5380@http://soccerlens.com/forum/ <p>i agree frankie. </p>
